PPP is easiest way to get user authentification/identity. As far as I know there is now any drivers for internal xDSL cards (except VDSL). Problem is to get documentation from manufacturers and DSP code required for processing DMT line code. I have tried to get documentation for ADI AD20msp910 chipset which is used in SpeadStream 3020. But no success so far. SpeadStream 3060 uses Alcatel chipset. There is uncompleted driver for 3010 (which does not contain DMT physical line interface only ATM-25). best regards, taavi ----------------------------------------------------------- Taavi Talvik | Internet: taavi@uninet.ee Unineti Andmeside AS | phone: +372 6405150 Ravala pst. 10 | fax: +372 6405151 Tallinn 10143, Estonia | To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-atm" in the body of the message
